Knitting for war injured "subversive" according to screeching harpy

I'm not going to give Michelle Malkin a link here--you can find her blog entry without looking hard. In it she says that knitting is a "new, left-wing hobby," and invites "non-subversive knitters" to do needlework projects for the troops. At the same time, she quotes the below passage from the New York Times review of the "Radical Lace & Subversive Knitting" exhibit at the Museum of Arts and Design in Manhattan:

Sabrina Gschwandtner, an artist and founder of KnitKnit magazine [. . . . ] invites people to join her in knitting ''blankets for recovery'' for people in Afghanistan and troops convalescing in military hospitals, among other projects. (On the exhibition's opening day, Ms. Gschwandtner was chatting and knitting with Phyllis Rodriguez, whose son died in the north tower of the World Trade Center on 9/11. . . "

Oh, wow, Michelle, that's super subversive--knitting for war wounded! Do you even read the things you yourself quote? You idiot.
